Self pay

No insurance? You're still welcome here. We offer transparent self-pay pricing so you know the cost of your visit before it happens — just ask when you book, and we'll quote you up front.

Billing questions

How payment works here

Call us before your appointment with your insurance card in hand. We'll verify your benefits and tell you your expected copay or self-pay cost so there are no surprises.
Photo ID, your insurance card (plus any secondary or Advantage card), a list of your current medications, and your completed new-patient forms. You can download the forms from our Documents page.
Very likely. Call us with your plan details — we may still be in network, we may be able to bill out of network, or you can be seen at our self-pay rate. We'll walk you through the options honestly.
Cosmetic and aesthetic services are generally not covered by medical insurance and are paid out of pocket. If your concern might be medical rather than cosmetic, tell us — it may be billable as a medical visit instead.
For most primary care visits, no. Some managed care plans require you to name us as your primary care provider first, and certain services may need prior authorization. Our front desk will tell you if anything is required.
